Hope Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGI JKJK| See through yon cloud that rolls in wrath | A |
| One little star benignant peep | B |
| To light along their trackless path | A |
| The wanderers of the stormy deep | B |
| - | |
| And thus oh Hope thy lovely form | C |
| In sorrow's gloomy night shall be | D |
| The sun that looks through cloud and storm | C |
| Upon a dark and moonless sea | D |
| - | |
| When heaven is all serene and fair | E |
| Full many a brighter gem we meet | F |
| 'Tis when the tempest hovers there | E |
| Thy beam is most divinely sweet | F |
| - | |
| The rainbow when the sun declines | G |
| Like faithless friend will disappear | H |
| Thy light dear star more brightly shines | G |
| When all is wail and weeping here | I |
| - | |
| And though Aurora's stealing beam | J |
| May wake a morning of delight | K |
| 'Tis only thy consoling beam | J |
| Will smile amid affliction's night | K |
